Finding Love In Royalty

Chapter 5

I just got back from my stroll with Harry around the gardens. I get back into my room to see Shyanne standing by my closet pulling my next outfit out. "You and prince Niall are going to be having lunch in town this afternoon." Shy says smiling at me as she passes me a light blue knee-length sweatheart dress with a black belt around the waist. I smile at her and I walk into my bathroom and I change out of jeggings and my sweater and into my dress. I walk back out and Shyanne passes me a black blazer and a black pair of wedge heels. I put on the blazer and slide on my wedges. "Here is your purse." She says passing me my brown purse.

"Thank you." I say smiling at her and she opens the door to my hallway and we head down to the foyer and there I see Prince Niall waiting for me. Shyanne opens the door for us and we walk outside to the limo. She opens the limo door for us and we step in and take our seats. We start heading to the local Italian restaraunt. It is an expensive restaraunt so only the buisness men, nobels, and the royals get to eat here because we are the only ones who can afford it. We pull up outside the restaraunt and we take our seats in the back of the restaraunt. Niall pulls my chair out for me and helps me push it back in. "Thank you." I say smiling at him.

"It is no problem." He says as he takes his seat. The waiter comes over and fills our glasses with water.

"What would you two like to eat?" The waiter asks.

"I will have the baked ziti without the meat." I say with a gentle smile

"I will have the Fettuccine Alfredo." Niall says.

"Ok I will be back shortly with those." He says giving us a poliet smile before walking towards the kitchen.

"So you are from Ireland." I say trying to start up a conversation.

"Yea, I love it there. It's a wonderful place." He says. "I often take my horse out and ride around the country side because it is so picturesque." He says with a warm smile on his face.

"I hope to visit there some day. It sounds like such a lovely place." I say smiling back at him.

"Oh it is. I will give you the grand tour myself when you come." He says.

"That would be lovely." I say. We sit in silence for a few minutes before he clears his throat.

"So tell me about yourself. What is your favorite food, favorite color?" He asks.

"Well my favorite food is baked ziti, and my favorite color is Pink." I say. "What about you? What is your favorite food, and favorite color?" I ask him.

"I can not pick a favorite food. I love all things edible. Well almost everything, and my favorite color would be green." He says. "Can I ask you a personal question?" He says.

"Sure what would you like to ask me?" I ask him.

"How did you react when you found out you got to pick your arranged husbad?" He asks.

"I was shocked. I knew this day would come but I thought it would be more along the lines of 'this is who you will be marrying' not 'you get to pick your husband' that was what shocked me the most." I explain to him.

"Sorry for asking, I just wanted to see if you reacted as bad as I did." He says.

"If you don't mind me asking how badly did you react?" I ask.

"Well I was ok while infront of my parents, and then once I was alone I may have over reacted just a little bit." He says looking down and at that moment the waited finally walks over and gives us our food and we sit in silence as we eat and the silence continues until we get back to the castle.

"Thank you for the lovely lunch date Niall. I say and kiss his cheek before walking into my room and sitting on the couch in my room. This decision has not gotten any easier.
